"Stitch him up, no questions asked, and you can be a doctor again." For one brief moment Dr. Farooq Madan was back in Iraq— bright red blood, a living man on the gurney. And when the orderly—no, of course, not an orderly—came to the end of his plea and lowered his gaze to the floor, it struck Farooq that in another context he would have said the man was praying.

The NYPD psychiatric evaluation was mandatory, but for John Reese the truths it unveiled were worth the effort. Lionel Fusco, Joss Carter, and just a dab of the Machine round out the story. Spoilers for Season 4, Episode 5 "Prophets," because the idea of Reese in the shrink's office was far too good to pass up.

A fellow Sherlock author asked me to put together a comprehensive guide to writing both gay and straight erotic fiction, as well as lists of sexy words and some general writing tips. Please feel free to use. Includes Table of Contents and References.

So – the actors got into a little Twitter tiff about whose character had loved Joss Carter more, Donnelly (if he weren't dead) or Scarface. This crack!fic had to be written. Gallows humor. Seriously no disrespect intended. It's only funny if the coffin's empty. As I have not accepted Donnelly's death, so also do I reject Carter's. We need to laugh before we cry any more.

Author's note: This story stands alone, but is a continuation of my EQ-verse stories. In the timeline, it follows "It's All Fun & Games."

Chaos AU, after "By the Book".

Special Agent Donnelly is obsessed with the Man in the Suit. He's certain that Christine Fitzgerald knows where he is. So the last thing he expects is to end up on a date with her. But watching the 1935 B&W movie of "Les Miserables" isn't really a date, is it? Even if there's popcorn? And hand-holding? And maybe just a kiss or two? It's still all just about finding the Man, right?
